Mr. Gaunt bought me a cute little Basil plant and re-potted it in a cute little yellow pot. We put it in the window, where it took all of 3 days to wilt and die. We don’t really get sun. Oh well, I can’t wait till we have a yard, or even a porch! Some day.
Before the Basil plant died I picked a bunch and made this YUMMY Caprese Pizza!
